Madshus being the OLDEST ski brand in the market today (1906) may not be the biggest but they are one of the most progressive…..

Supporting Women in Sport! Team Out There athlete & Women’s Nordic Combined Pioneer Tara Geraghty-Moats has recently signed with Madshus. Growing up she skied on Madshus and always loved the products. Heading into the 2019-20 Season we spoke with Madshus and they came back to Tara with a great opportunity and excited to see where she and the sport of Women’s Nordic Combined is headed, in the USA & the world. They maybe the Oldest Ski Brand but they as their Norwegian Heritage and progressive in equal thinking.

Ski Technology. When Madshus debuted the Redline ski it was a shift in the feel of a ski on the snow. They have continued to revolutionize this with the launch last season to select retailers (we were one) of the NEW Redline 2.0. Or as we like to say 2.ohhhhhhhhhhhh . They are AMAZING.

This past weekend was the first event of the Women’s Nordic Combined Summer Grand Prix and our own Team Out There athlete Tara Geraghty-Moats was coming into the weekend a heavy favorite after a fantastic 2018/19 Nordic Combined Season. With the PCR Jumps for qualifying happening on Friday Tara lead out the group in first with some great flight. Sunday was the day of competition and due to wind the Jumping was cancelled and the PRC Jumps were used to seed the 5km Freestyle ski portion of the event. Tara took out right from the start and controlled the pace for the entire 5km. Now the Ladies are off to Klingenthal Germany for another day of competition.

Madshus News- For any of you noticing Tara is a recent addition to the Madshus Family. Keep an eye out for future updates!

US Ski Team Athlete Hailey Swirbul sums it up in a recent message from her

“I’ve got my new fleet! I have been testing on the glacier and am absolutely loving them”

The Red Line 2.0s will have totally redesigned geometry and side cuts – especially the skating version 2.0 where geometry changes the company describes as “revolutionary”.

RL 2.0 will have totally new base material. No, there still will be old good Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWP) more commonly ( if wrongly) called P-Tex. The properties of the new base, however, will be very different to what we all are used to, Madshus says .

Perhaps, more significantly, for the first time in many years ( and please correct us if we are wrong here) any ski manufacturer would use for its top model UHMWP not supplied by storied Austrian Isosport!

Per Wiik, Madshus marketing & racing department boss says “We looking into very limited quantity introduction for loyal dealers with racing focus for late fall 2018” Translation: if you are one of those people who absolutely must have the latest & best, start schmoozing your local dealer already now!

The rest of the folk would see the RedLine 2.0 in the fall of 2019.

The MADSHUS Propulsion is the ski that is changing the face of Distance Classic Marathons.

In the past decade the Double Poling technique in Classic has had a gigantic evolution in distance & sprint races around the world. So much to the point that MADSHUS has developed a Classic ski just for that technique. The Propulsion has an entirely different flex than other traditional classic skis.

HERE’S HOW While double poling, the skier’s weight is evenly divided between the two skis – both in the power and the gliding phases. This is different from skating or classic skiing. Focusing on this, the ski does not need to be engineered with a wax pocket camber or to hold the full body weight when skating. Instead we can design the ski with one thing in mind: gliding efficiency. Without having to worry about the dynamic movement of skating or the wax pocket of classic skiing, we engineered the Propulsion ski with even distribution of pressure points throughout the whole ski and a compliant but stiff camber profile which work together to provide more powerful accelerations, better glide and higher top speed.

This season we were the ONLY Brick & Mortar retailer to bring these skis to the US Market. We have been shipping them from Alaska to Quebec! We have a limited number of pairs left availablealong with the Madshus Super Nano Classic & Skate Boots!

We are pleased to announce that we will be the ONLY Brick & Mortar Nordic Retailer in the US market stocking two NEW items from Madshus for the 16/17 Winter Season!

First: Madshus Super NANO Classic Boot

The Super Nano Classic Ski Boot is one of the first classic ski boots to use an integrated carbon base specifically engineered for classic ski performance. The Super Nano Classic Boot delivers flex and spring that maximize kick while simultaneously providing torsional rigidity needed for top race performance and control. This boot’s one-piece Integrated Carbon base wraps through the boot’s arch and around the heel, coming together with our RevoWrap™ upper for a seamless fit all around.

Pair the Super Nano Classic with our Redline Carbon Classic Ski and you’ll have the ingredients you need for groundbreaking, World Cup performance.

Second : Madshus Propulsion Double Pole Ski

No Kick wax on these Classic Skis. The Madshus design Team has created a Classic Double Poling ski with the Ultimate in performance for distance racing. 3D Geometry & Fast Acceleration Camber was developed to increase the speed of the ski on the flat & UPHILL. This is done through specific pressure distribution throughout the entire ski!

This Ski dominated Podiums last season in the Swedish Vasaloppet & the Nordenskiöldsloppet (220km)

These skis will not be available officially to the masses until 2017/18. Select Nordic retailers were offered them for this upcoming season. PRE-Ordered only! We will be the ONLY Brick & Mortar Nordic Retailer stocking them in the US market! Over 65% of our incoming stock is SOLD! 9.14.16
